What size decorative pillows fit on a bed?

Decorative pillows on a bed not only make your bed a real eye-catcher but also offer extra comfort as back support while reading, watching TV, or relaxing. The dimensions of decorative pillows that fit well on a bed depend on the size of your bed. Generally, you want to work with the width of your bed rather than the height.

Do you have a single bed (90x200 cm)?

Then choose 1 large rectangular decorative pillow of 50x70 centimeters and 1 rectangular decorative pillow of 40x60 centimeters. You place the large decorative pillow upright in front of your regular pillow(s). You place the smaller decorative pillow in front of the large decorative pillow.

Do you have a double bed (160x200 cm or 180x200 cm)?

Then choose 2 large rectangular decorative pillows of 50x70 centimeters and 1 rectangular decorative pillow of 40x60 centimeters. You place the large decorative pillows upright in front of your regular pillows. You place the smaller decorative pillow in the middle of and in front of the large decorative pillows.

Where do you put your decorative pillows when you go to sleep?

There are several options for storing your decorative pillows when you go to sleep. The easiest way is to not place too many decorative pillows on your bed in the first place. For example, if you work with a maximum of 3 decorative pillows on a double bed? Then you can easily place those decorative pillows upright behind your regular pillow. You then place them against your headboard, and they serve as extra protection for your head. You can, of course, also store your decorative pillows in a chest of drawers or in/on a bench at the foot of your bed.
